17257 Olympic View Drive NW, Silverdale, WA, 98383
About This Home
Set along the quiet shoreline of Hood Canal, 17257 Olympic View is a rare waterfront holding where history and setting are inseparable. Known as “The Boathouse,” the home has evolved over more than a century, preserving its original character while adapting for modern living in a way that feels both natural and enduring.The architecture reflects a time when homes were built with intention and permanence. Details carry a sense of craftsmanship that is difficult to replicate today, while the scale and layout have been thoughtfully expanded to support how people live now. With just over 4,800 square feet and a full guest suite, the home offers flexibility for multigenerational living, extended stays, or gatherings that unfold easily between indoor and outdoor spaces.Every vantage point is oriented to the water. The canal stretches wide and calm, with shifting light, distant mountains, and the quiet rhythm of the shoreline defining the experience of the home. The setting is private, grounded, and deeply connected to the landscape, offering a pace that feels removed yet entirely accessible.Properties like this are increasingly rare. Not simply because of the waterfront, but because of the combination of history, scale, and presence on the shoreline. The Boathouse remains a place to be kept, experienced, and carried forward.
